The union has already been campaigning at local level but tomorrow's meeting will not only include PCS members but politicians, community groups, churches, voluntary organisations and members of the public.

Janice Godrich, PCS National President, said: “This campaign started in Glasgow and is now rolling out across the country.

"These proposals are ill thought out and at best “random”, based on lease breaks.

“The DWP needs to stop and think about the impact some of these closures on local communities and how they will undermine the support to members of the public who rely on them to help them get back to work.

"We are opposed to these closures and will vigorously fight any attempt to force DWP workers out of their jobs.”

National president Janice Godrich will address the public meeting with Glasgow South West MP Chris Stephens of the Scottish National Party, a seasoned union man who also serves chair of the PCS Parliamentary Group.

The meeting will take place at Adelaide’s at 209 Bath Street and will run between 11am and 1pm.
